We use a lot of custom script monitors. Oftentimes these require script arguments to handle different parameters.
After the APM 4.2 Upgrade it seems the Script Body and Paramaters are tied together as far as template inheritance/overriding. Is there a plan to seperate these where the script can remain the same from the template, but override just the parameters passed?
The reason we would like this functionality returned is, say we change a slight function of the script, we would have to go to every assigned monitor, inherit the new changes and then override and re-setup the parameters.
Example: We have a 16 component script that reads log files. The log file number is unique on each server, but the functions needing to performed are the same so we pass the number as a parameter. If we were to change just one item in the template script itself, we'd have to make 128, re-inherits and manual override parameter updates which becomes tedious.
